A Thousand Plates explores the topic of food as a means to question society by examining traditions across cultures and throughout the centuries. The exhibition will examine food as a fundamental need, modern food production and its relationship to the environment, the culture of eating and its relationship to memory.

Our exhibition title refers to Deleuze and Guattari’s “A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia”—a philosophical text written with a rhizomatic structure—where connections between ideas and references defy linear, structural, or casual relations. Every point can conceptually link to somewhere else. In our view, our relationship to food is similar. The production, consumption, distribution and marketing of food is connected to tradition, culture, individual and social taste as well as healthcare, environmental issues, and global politics that shape the contemporary society.

The SDSU School of Art and Design will be presenting a juried art exhibition of student and faculty work investigating food as the conceptual theme for SDSU’s Downtown Gallery.

Slow Sips is back!

This month we’ll be teaming up with San Diego Green Drinks to celebrate the re-opening of Local Habit. Fare includes oysters and other cali-creole themed food as well as delicious craft cocktails from their full bar!

As always, you’ll be able to learn more about getting involved in our grass-roots organization, sign up to be a volunteer, and meet and mingle with like-minded friends. In addition, you’ll get to learn more about the folks who work in the environmental field.

Join us for San Diego’s first Slow Food Youth Network roundtable discussion at the USD community garden on Thursday, April 2nd at 12pm. We’ll be taking a tour of the garden and learning how San Diego’s young adults can participate in the good food movement. Please RSVP to kellyk.slowfood@gmail.com.
